| Symantec Reports Solid Third Quarter Earnings |
| Results Driven by a Record Number of Large Deals, Robust Demand for Availability Solutions, and Record Deferred Revenue CUPERTINO, CA, Jan 31, 2006 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX News Network) -- Symantec Corp. (NASDAQ: SYMC) today reported results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2006, ended Dec. 30, 2005. GAAP revenue for the December 2005 quarter was $1.149 billion and non-GAAP revenue was $1.253 billion. Non-GAAP revenue includes $104 million of deferred revenue that has been eliminated from GAAP results as part of the purchase accounting associated with the acquisition of VERITAS Software Corporation. On a non-GAAP basis, revenue grew five percent over the December 2004 quarter's combined non-GAAP revenue of $1.192 billion. GAAP Results: The December quarter's GAAP net income was $91 million, resulting in fully diluted GAAP earnings per share of $0.08. GAAP net income includes $166 million of expenses related to the amortization of acquired software and intangibles, the amortization of deferred compensation, and integration and restructuring. Non-GAAP Results: Non-GAAP net income was $282 million for the third quarter, five percent higher than the December 2004 quarter's combined non-GAAP net income of $269 million. Non-GAAP fully diluted earnings per share for the quarter was $0.26, up 18 percent as compared to our combined non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.22 in the December 2004 quarter. Non-GAAP earnings per share excludes the write-off of in-process research and development, the amortization of acquired software and intangibles, the amortization of deferred compensation, and integration and restructuring expenses. Non-GAAP results, as presented in the attached consolidated financial statements, exclude certain GAAP expenses, net of tax, and include the results of operations of VERITAS for the applicable periods, including adjustments based on the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date of July 2, 2005, and deferred revenue that was eliminated as a result of purchase accounting for the VERITAS acquisition. "Our December quarter was driven by a record number of large transactions and robust performance in backup, email archiving, and high availability solutions," said John W. Thompson, Symantec chairman and chief executive officer. "We continue to believe the combination of our growing deferred revenue balance, broad product portfolio, and diverse customer base will be critical factors in driving consistently predictable results." Revenue Components For the quarter, Symantec's Data Protection segment comprised 26 percent of total revenue and grew 16 percent on a combined non-GAAP basis year-over-year. The storage management segment represented 23 percent of total revenue and grew nine percent year-over-year. The enterprise security business represented 21 percent of total revenue and grew seven percent year-over-year. Services revenue represented four percent of total revenue and grew 38 percent year-over-year. Symantec's consumer business represented 26 percent of total revenue and declined ten percent on a combined non-GAAP basis year-over-year as was expected with the shift to a ratable revenue recognition model. International revenues represented 49 percent of non-GAAP revenue and grew eight percent on a combined non-GAAP basis over the same quarter last year. The Americas, including the United States, Latin America, and Canada, represented 55 percent of total revenue and grew two percent year-over-year. The Europe, Middle East, and Africa region represented 32 percent of total revenue and grew eight percent year-over-year. Asia Pacific/Japan represented 13 percent of total revenue and grew 11 percent on a combined non-GAAP basis year-over-year. March Quarter Forecast For the March 2006 quarter, GAAP revenue is estimated between $1.19 billion and $1.22 billion. This excludes $60 million of deferred revenue that was lost through the purchase accounting for the VERITAS transaction. GAAP fully diluted earnings per share for the March quarter is estimated at $0.10 at the mid-point of the revenue guidance. Non-GAAP revenue for the March quarter is estimated between $1.25 billion and $1.28 billion, including about $60 million of deferred revenue. Non-GAAP fully diluted earnings per share is forecasted at $0.25 at the mid-point of the revenue guidance. Non-GAAP earnings per share excludes approximately $155 million of expenses related to the amortization of acquisition-related intangibles and deferred compensation charges. Fiscal Year 2006 Forecast For the fiscal year ending March 2006, GAAP revenue is estimated between $4.09 billion and $4.12 billion. This excludes $300 million of deferred revenue that was lost through the purchase accounting for the VERITAS transaction and $559 million of revenue related to VERITAS for the quarter ended March 31, 2005. GAAP fully diluted earnings per share for the fiscal year ending in March 2006 is estimated at $0.24 at the mid-point of GAAP revenue guidance. Including $300 million of deferred revenue that was lost through the purchase accounting for the VERITAS transaction and $559 million of revenue related to VERITAS for the quarter ended March 31, 2005, Symantec's non-GAAP revenue for fiscal 2006 is estimated in the range of $4.95 billion and $4.98 billion. Non-GAAP fully diluted earnings per share is estimated at $0.99 at the mid-point of non-GAAP revenue guidance, excluding approximately $980 million related to the write-off of in-process research and development, and expenses related to the amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, deferred compensation charges, integration and restructuring. Fiscal Year 2007 Forecast For the fiscal year ending March 2007, GAAP revenue is estimated in the range of $5.35 billion to $5.55 billion, excluding about $55 million in lost deferred revenue from the VERITAS merger.

NOTES:
The above information reflects the combined results of Symantec Corporation
("Symantec") and VERITAS Software Corporation ("VERITAS"), including
amounts related to the amortization of fair value adjustments of assets
acquired and liabilities assumed by Symantec as of the actual acquisition
date of July 2, 2005. For comparative purposes, the information presented
assumes that the acquisition took place on April 1, 2004. If the
acquisition had taken place on April 1, 2004, the fair values of the
assets and liabilities would have been different and actual results of
operations would have been different from those presented above.
Additional non-GAAP adjustments consist of: non-cash charges related to
acquisitions, such as the amortization of intangibles and stock-based
compensation expense, and the write-off of in-process research and
development; restructuring charges; integration planning costs; and the
impact of other special items, such as other stock-based compensation
expense, litigation matters, gain/loss on investments and related
adjustments to provision for income taxes on our operating results.
These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from
non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Non-GAAP financial
measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to,
measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
(*) The results of operations include our results for the three months
ended December 31, 2004.
(**) The results of operations include VERITAS' historical results for
the three months ended September 30, 2004, including amortization related
to fair value adjustments based on the fair values of assets acquired and
liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date of July 2, 2005.
(***) For the three months ended December 31, 2004, diluted net income
per share is calculated using the if-converted method. Under this method,
the numerator excludes the interest expense from the 3% convertible
subordinated notes, net of income tax, of $1.2 million for the three months
ended December 31, 2004 and the denominator includes shares issuable from
the assumed conversion of the 3% convertible subordinated notes.
Footnotes:
(1) Symantec includes these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe
these measures are useful to investors in that they allow for greater
transparency to certain line items in our financial statements. We have
historically reported similar non-GAAP financial measures to our investors
and believe that the inclusion of comparative numbers provides consistency
in our financial reporting. Investors are encouraged to review the
reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly
comparable GAAP financial measures as provided herein.
(2) Symantec's management refers to these non-GAAP financial measures, such
as non-GAAP operating margins and net income, in making operating decisions
because the measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding
our operational performance and our ability to invest in research and
development and fund acquisitions and capital expenditures. In addition,
these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate management's internal
comparisons to our historical operating results and comparisons to
competitors' operating results. Investors are encouraged to review the
reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly
comparable GAAP financial measures as provided herein.
A To include VERITAS' deferred revenue that was excluded as a
result of adjustments to fair value.
B To exclude non-cash charges of amortization of acquired
product rights, amortization of other intangible assets and
the write-off of acquired in-process research and
development.
C To exclude executive incentive bonuses related to the
VERITAS acquisition.
D To exclude amortization of deferred stock-based
compensation.
E To exclude charges relating to restructuring.
F To exclude the Symantec and VERITAS integration planning
costs.
G To adjust the provision for income taxes to reflect the
effect of the non-GAAP adjustments on net income (loss).
H To include VERITAS' historical results of operations for
the three months ended September 30, 2004.
I To eliminate VERITAS' historical amortization of developed
technology, other intangible assets and the write-off of
in-process research and development.
J To eliminate VERITAS' historical amortization of deferred
stock-based compensation.
K To amortize deferred stock-based compensation related to
the VERITAS acquisition.
L To amortize VERITAS' lease obligation in excess of fair
value.
M To record additional depreciation expense on VERITAS'
property and equipment as a result of the adjustment to
fair value.
N To amortize acquired product rights and other intangible
assets related to the VERITAS acquisition.
O To amortize the discount on VERITAS' convertible
subordinated debt as a result of adjustment to fair value.
P Diluted shares are equal to Symantec historical shares plus
VERITAS historical shares multiplied by the exchange ratio
of 1.1242.

The above information reflects the combined results of Symantec Corporation
("Symantec") and VERITAS Software Corporation ("VERITAS"), including
amounts related to the amortization of fair value adjustments of assets
acquired and liabilities assumed by Symantec as of the actual acquisition
date of July 2, 2005. For comparative purposes, the information presented
assumes that the acquisition took place on April 1, 2004. If the
acquisition had taken place on April 1, 2004, the fair values of the
assets and liabilities would have been different and actual results of
operations would have been different from those presented above.
Additional non-GAAP adjustments consist of: non-cash charges related to
acquisitions, such as the amortization of intangibles and stock-based
compensation expense, and the write-off of in-process research and
development; restructuring charges; integration planning costs; and the
impact of other special items, such as other stock-based compensation
expense, litigation matters, gain/loss on investments and related
adjustments to provision for income taxes on our operating results.
These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from
non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Non-GAAP
financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or
superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in
accordance with GAAP.
(*) The results of operations include VERITAS' historical results for the
three months ended March 31, 2005, including amortization related to fair
value adjustments based on the fair values of assets acquired and
liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date of July 2, 2005.
(**) The results of operations include our results for the nine months
ended December 31, 2004.
(***) The results of operations include VERITAS' historical results
for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, including amortization
related to fair value adjustments based on the fair values of assets
acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date of
July 2, 2005.
(****) For the nine months ended December 31, 2004, diluted net income
per share is calculated using the if-converted method. Under this method,
the numerator excludes the interest expense from the 3% convertible
subordinated notes, net of income tax, of $8.4 million for the nine
months ended December 31, 2004 and the denominator includes shares
issuable from the assumed conversion of the 3% convertible
subordinated notes.
Footnotes:
(1) Symantec includes these non-GAAP financial measures because we
believe these measures are useful to investors in that they allow for
greater transparency to certain line items in our financial statements.
We have historically reported similar non-GAAP financial measures to
our investors and believe that the inclusion of comparative numbers
provides consistency in our financial reporting. Investors are
encouraged to review the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial
measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as
provided herein.
(2) Symantec's management refers to these non-GAAP financial measures,
such as non-GAAP operating margins and net income, in making operating
decisions because the measures provide meaningful supplemental
information regarding our operational performance and our ability to
invest in research and development and fund acquisitions and capital
expenditures. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate
management's internal comparisons to our historical operating results
and comparisons to competitors' operating results. Investors are
encouraged to review the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures
to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as provided herein.
